Apprentices & Trainees

Trade employment starts with Apprentices and Trainees. Your preparation and acquired skills will shape the future of businesses. Time is of the essence, but yet quality and cost-effective training are key aspects in the relationship with your current and future employers. New England College wants to help you achieve this by providing you the right skills and making sure they are accessible in the workforce. Trainers at New England College will manage your training and assessment.

They will:

Work with you and your employer to develop a training plan, including:

"I want to be an Australian Apprentice or Trainee…where should I start?"
